The book has no strength, the female supporting role just wants to survive

With Xiao Mingxu stepping forward, Mudan and the others no longer had Taro Sakai to support them, so they had to leave for the time being.

"Thank you very much, young lady. I will never forget your kindness today."

Kikyo was helped up by Chunhua and bowed weakly.

"It's just an equal exchange. If we talk about saving people, Miss Su is the one who really stood up for you."

Although it was abandoned halfway.

Jiang Tunan handed his handkerchief (newly bought and clean without the smell of chicken soup) to Jie Geng.

"Wipe it."

Kikyo took the handkerchief and thought for a long time before she couldn't help asking,

"Is the matter that the young lady needs my help really worth five hundred taels?"

This time, it was Xiao Mingxu who spoke first.

"As long as my cousin is happy, the five hundred taels are worth it."

Seeing Jiang Tunan looking at him with a touched expression, Xiao Mingxu said casually,

"So, you're obsessed with me, right?"

Jiang Tunan nodded vigorously.

"I'm totally obsessed with you! I'm holding up the banner for my cousin, let's see who dares to be your enemy!"

These words made Xiao Mingxu laugh continuously. The boy's hearty laughter and handsome face attracted the attention of the girls passing by.

"girl."

Kikyo handed the pipa in her hand to Jiang Tunan.

"Could you please keep this pipa for me for a while?"

Jiang Tunan was a little surprised when he heard this, while Xiao Mingxu opened the lid directly and raised his eyebrows when he saw the pipa.

"This pipa is worth more than five hundred taels."

Jiang Tunan also asked,

"Aren't you afraid that I won't return it to you after I take it?"

Kikyo smiled calmly.

"Even if it stays in my hands, it will be snatched away by Mudan and the others sooner or later. Besides, the young lady is willing to spend five hundred taels to give me the freedom of a man whose appearance has been completely destroyed. How could she covet my pipa?"

Jiang Tunan muttered quietly,

"That's not necessarily true. I'm quite greedy for money and might not be able to control myself."

Platycodon:?

Jiang Tunan forced himself to look away from the pipa and said seriously,

"Just leave it to me. I will definitely screw it up!"

Kikyo: “Ah?”

"I mean, I won't screw this up!"

Chunhua was just taking the pipa from Kikyo. Xiao Mingxu shook his head helplessly and said in a gentle voice,

"Let me do it. This pipa is too heavy. You..."

Before he could finish his words, Chunhua lifted the entire violin case with one hand, turned it in a spiral and carried it on her shoulder. The second half of Xiao Mingxu's sentence was stuck in his throat and he couldn't utter it.

"This pipa is too heavy, you...you're not bad either."

"Thank you for the compliment, Third Young Master!"

Chunhua's cheeks were flushed. This was the second time she was praised for her strength. How great!

"By the way, my name is Jiang Tunan."

Kikyo took a step back, put his hands together in front of him, nodded, and knelt down.

"Jigen is waiting for good news from Miss Jiang at Changgefang."

As soon as Kikyo left, Xiao Mingxu immediately came up to Jiang Tunan and asked,

"Tell the truth, why did you insist on buying Kikyo?"

Jiang Tunan: "Is it possible that I hesitated at that time, but you just threw the five hundred taels of silver note at me."

"Then I won't buy it."

Xiao Mingxu turned around and was about to leave. Jiang Tunan hurriedly ran up and grabbed Xiao Mingxu's sleeve.

"Come on, cousin, you should help others to the end. Just help me this time."

Xiao Mingxu had a serious face.

"Tell me first, why did you buy Le Ling?"

"Of course it's business."

Xiao Mingxu looked earnest in his words.

"You are a girl, I can understand if you buy a young prostitute, but why do you want to buy a prostitute?"

Jiang Tunan held his chin in his hand, thinking.

"Cousin, do you mean I should buy a waiter?"

"No! Is that the point?!"

Xiao Mingxu pressed Jiang Tunan's head and rubbed it vigorously. Jiang Tunan could not break free from Xiao Mingxu's grip and could only beg for mercy.

"I recruit, I recruit, I recruit all."

Only then did Xiao Mingxu let go of Jiang Tunan, with an expression that said "let me see what you have to say" on his face.

"I'm going to sell the storybooks."

"what?"

Jiang Tunan pulled Xiao Mingxu's ear and shouted,

"I said, I'm planning to sell my words."

Xiao Mingxu was nearly knocked unconscious, but the dice behind him supported him tightly.

"I have one more question."

Xiao Mingxu stretched out a finger weakly.

"After you buy her, where are you going to place her? Don't even think about going to the Xiao Mansion. If mother knew that you brought a Le Ling home, she would string you and me together and hang us on the door as wind chimes."

Jiang Tunan choked. This was indeed a problem. Given Kikyo's identity, it was indeed not convenient for her to stay in the Xiao Mansion.

"If you trust me, I can find a suitable place for her."

When Jiang Tunan heard this, he immediately put on a flattering smile.

"Thank you, cousin. You are so kind. I was wondering why the sun is so bright today. It turns out that God wants to better illuminate your handsome face."

Xiao Mingxu straightened his appearance and coughed a few times.

"receive!"

"okay!"

Jiang Tunan stood obediently beside Xiao Mingxu, with a smile from the heart (filled with money) on his face.

"Come on, I'll take you clothes shopping."

Xiao Mingxu walked in front with big strides, and Jiang Tunan followed behind with his hands dancing, and finally the two of them came to Qishefang again.

Although Jiang Tunan had a bad impression of Qishefang due to the previous incident, Qishefang was indeed the top jewelry and clothing store in Kyoto, and it was not easy for Jiang Tunan to refuse directly.

This time it went much more smoothly. Jiang Tunan and his companions were led directly into the private room by the waiter. A man of medium build with a goatee on his face walked in and bowed,

"Excuse me for keeping you waiting. My name is Zhang, and I am the owner of this branch."

This is really strange. Jiang Tunan remembered that it was not this Zhang who was the shopkeeper last time. Did the Qishefang change shopkeepers so quickly?

"What are you thinking about? Pick out some clothes and jewelry you like today. You didn't choose carefully last time, so I'll give you the same amount this time."

No matter whether the shopkeeper changes or not, the most important thing is to seize the wealth in front of him. Jiang Tunan quickly put other things behind him and concentrated on choosing clothes and jewelry.

Shopkeeper Zhang asked someone to bring some picture albums for Jiang Tunan to choose from. There were also some albums placed in front of Xiao Mingxu. When Jiang Tunan occasionally looked up, he found that Xiao Mingxu was reading very seriously, and sometimes he would whisper a few words to Shopkeeper Zhang.

Jiang Tunan didn't take it seriously. When he came out of Qishefang, it was already dark. Fortunately, he had just had a meal in Qishefang.

Jiang Tunan and Chunhua were already carrying a lot of bags, but Xiao Mingxu bought nothing.

Jiang Tunan complained in his heart, this guy looked so seriously, but in the end he didn't buy anything, it was really hard for Manager Zhang to keep introducing things to him.

"What are you looking at?"

Xiao Mingxu saw that Jiang Tunan was staring at him and felt a little embarrassed.

"I was thinking, even if it's dark, it can't stop you from looking so radiant, cousin."

Xiao Mingxu showed a profile that he was most satisfied with and snapped his fingers.

"Cousin, you performed very well today. Keep it up."
